The Haddam Killingworth High School Varsity football team was defeated by CREC on Saturday, Nov. 13, 2021. The final score was CREC 8, H-K 7.
Cayden Ortiz scored on a 15-yard run in the third quarter and followed with a two-point conversion to provide the margin of victory for the Colts (2-7) over HK (2-6). Tate Callender scored for the Cougars on a three-yard run in the first quarter.
“It was a disappointing result, obviously,” said HK coach Tyler Wilcox. “We didn’t play our best game and we hurt ourselves with penalties at the worst times. But now we have to get back to work, clean things up, and prepare for two games in a four-day span.”
